Bl*$dy Pidcock. I’ve kept the faith with him all campaign, and finally decided he wasn’t going to bring me any more points, so it was time for him to take the bench, and what goes and happens? I swear he did it just to spite me!

Damn good. Maximum grinta
Yep. Was a great race!
Siiiiick.
Bam Bam is a beast.
She has crazy talent.
You and I both, brother!
I correctly took him, but left off Pog just because I’m tired of him.
Speaking of which, it’s hard to imagine LBL going much differently.
Early picks.
Pog (just have to), Piddles, Crime Dog
Laurance, Van Eetvelt
The women’s, on the other hand - lots of intrigue.
Vollering is clearly in good shape. Kopecky hasn’t looked super since the Ronde, and was clearly struggling to just stay attached at FW. And I trust that AvdB has been well and truly sick, and there’s no gamesmanship there.
PFP, Vollering, Puck
ELB, Faulkner
Your men’s podium is mine too, so I’ll make a substitution.
Pog, Remco, Bardet
Crime Dog, Piddles
I logged on thinking I’d be the first as I’m on another very long flight all weekend (heading back home) but I see you guys beat me!
So I think I’m going to take Pidcock back from the bench which is really going to piss me off if he doesn’t get top 5!!
Here we go: Top 3 - Pogacar, Remco, Pidcock
Wildcards - Healey, Lenny Martinez (but if he doesn’t ride can I have Skjelmose instead! - I’ll try and logon once I’m home before race start and amend, but there’s a more than 50-50 I’ll forget!!)

Good luck on the flight. Our family is packed up and heading to Ireland and then France for a bit. It’s a big trip for the little ones.

Thanks. It sounds like you may need more luck for the flight than me though - I just have to check in and then watch cycling movies that I’ve downloaded for 26 hours - I can’t imagine doing it with little ones!
Just so I don’t forget to do this later:
Pog, Pidcock, Remco
Allaphillipe, Bardet
If Alla strikes you get extra points for him being a real long shot.
He has got to pay off for me at some point. I will continue to hold out hope.

I think you’re the type that would appreciate this name-bingo thread interruption…for the following opportunity:
Thanks for providing the appropriate platform for me to reply.
I’m afraid the big dogs make originality a losing cause:
Pogi/Remco/ Ciccone // canis sceleris (dog of crime/Healy) / c rod (ineos)
the lower steps continue to have refreshing unpredictability. pidcock’s sprint makes a lot of sense but… nowhere near as easy to root for as Healy. I’m backing lil Trek’s strength in numbers - just questions pb n Skjelly’s return from crash by sunday. need a grand toru gc dude - taking c rod over (no) mas…
